The article presents literature data about the current views on the role of sulfur-containing aminoacids (AA) in the development of atherosclerosis (AS). Specifically, the questions of the influence of cysteine, cystine, taurine, methionine, and homocysteine are taken into considereation. The pathogenetic role of aminoaciddis balance of the se АА in AS and the ways of its goal-oriented correction in the course of complex therapy of AS are enlightened.
